Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Treasury Fund (the “Fund”) is to generate regular income and moderate short to medium term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in Canadian short-term fixed income securities. These securities are issued by federal, provincial and municipal governments as well as Canadian companies. The Fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Optimum Asset Management, focuses on capital preservation and favours an approach based on interest rate expectations, yield curve management, sector selection and securities selection. Credit spread management and market timing are also considered. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are mainly made up of Canadian bonds securities traded on an active market. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to credit risk, interest rate risk, bond market risk, as well as risk related to the use of derivative instruments. It does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for information on financial instrument risks. Credit risk The Fund’s main credit concentration risk arises from fixed income securities. On purchase, money market securities must be rated R1 or higher by the Dominion Bond Rating Service (DBRS) and bond securities must be rated BBB or higher by Standard & Poor’s. Bond securities rated BBB may not make up more than 10% of the Fund’s assets. As at December 31, the allocation of fixed income securities in the portfolio by credit rating is as follows:

Credit Rating* 2013 (%)

2012 (%)

Governments, municipals and subsidized 40.29 32.17 Companies rated AAA 26.21 32.76 Companies rated AA 4.86 9.30 Companies rated A 23.64 18.05 Companies rated BBB 5.00 6.98 Not rated - 0.74

* Sources: DBRS and Standard & Poor’s

All transactions on traded securities are settled or paid on delivery through certified brokers. Securities sold are not delivered until the broker has received payment. Payment for securities purchased is not made until the securities are received by the broker. The transaction is cancelled if one of the parties does not fulfil its obligations.

Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Investments held by the Fund are traded on an active market. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative products. Interest rate risk The following table indicates the Fund’s interest rate exposure with financial instruments at fair value by contract maturities.

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Triasima Canadian Equity Fund (the “Fund”) is to generate long-term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in the equities of Canadian large -cap companies. The Fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Triasima Inc. Portfolio Management, is to favour a bottom-up analysis of the companies and a predominantly value management style. The manager uses qualitative and quantitative measures for selecting the securities. As at December 31, 2013, the Fund’s asset is mainly made up of Canadian equities. December 31, 2012, the Fund invested in units of underlying funds Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to stock market and risks associated with the use of derivatives instruments. The Fund does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk The Fund’s exposure to credit risk is limited to the holding of money market securities. Therefore, the Fund is not significantly exposed to credit risk. Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Investments held by the Fund are traded on an active market. Equity securities are listed on major stock markets. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative instruments. Interest rate risk As at December 31, 2013, the Fund is mainly invested in equity securities. Consequently, a fluctuation of interest rate would not have significant impact on the Fund.

Price risk The Fund trades Canadian equity and money market securities which must meet the requirements of the investment policy. The Fund is composed mainly of marketable securities composing the Canadian market S&P/TSX Index. The percentage in foreign issuers is limited to 10% of the Fund’s assets. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in the benchmark, with all other variables held constant.

Benchmark Change in Benchmark

2013 Impact on Net Assets

The results of the sensitivity analysis conducted with respect to price risk to which the Fund is exposed represent Management’s best estimates. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates. Currency risk As at December 31, 2013, all of the Fund’s securities are denominated in Canadian dollars, the Fund’s functional currency. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to currency risk.

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Montrusco Bolton Canadian Equity Fund (the “Fund”) is to achieve long-term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in Canadian all-cap companies. The Fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Montrusco Bolton Investments, is to manage about 80% of the portfolio using an all-cap fundamental approach and 20% using a quantitative approach based on share “momentum”. With regard to the fundamental approach, the manager’s investment strategy is to favour a bottom-up management approach and a predominantly growth-oriented management style. Preference is given to companies whose share valuation presents a strong growth potential. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are mainly made up of Canadian equities. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to stock market and risks associated with the use of derivatives. The Fund does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, it is not exposed to credit risk. Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Investments held by the Fund are traded on an active market. Equity securities are listed on major stock markets. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative instruments. Interest rate risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, it is not exposed to the risk of interest rate fluctuation.

Price risk The Fund trades Canadian equity and money market securities which must meet the requirements of the investment policy. The Fund invests between 90% and 100% in Canadian equities and up to a maximum of 10% in money market securities. The Fund’s assets must be invested in at least seven sectors of the S&P/TSX Index. The percentage of securities from a single issuer is limited to 8% of the Fund’s assets. Exceptions are allowed for securities that have a weighting in the S&P/TSX index that is greater than 10%. In this case, the limit permitted is 65 times the weight of the security in the S&P/TSX composite index. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in the benchmark, with all other variables held constant.

The results of the sensitivity analysis conducted with respect to price risk to which the Fund is exposed represent Management’s best estimates. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates. Currency risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the Fund’s securities are denominated in Canadian dollars, the Fund’s functional currency. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to currency risk.

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Tradewinds U.S. Equity Fund (the “Fund”) is to generate long-term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in the equities of all-cap U.S. companies. The Fund may hold fund units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Tradewinds Global Investors, favours a bottom-up management approach and a predominantly value management style. Preference is given to high-quality companies that are traded below their intrinsic value. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are made up of U.S. equities. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to stock market risk, currency risk (between Canadian and U.S. dollar), as well as risks related to the use of derivative instruments. It does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to credit risk. Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Investments held by the Fund are traded on an active market. Equity securities are listed on major stock markets. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative instruments. Interest rate risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to the risk of a change in interest rates.

Price risk The Fund trades U.S. equity securities which must meet the requirements of the investment policy. No more than 30% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in securities of companies in the same sector. Market capitalization of target companies must be greater than $1 billion at the time of purchase. The percentage of securities from a single issuer is limited to 8% of the Fund’s assets. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in benchmark, with all other variables held constant.

The results of the sensitivity analysis conducted with respect to price risk to which the Fund is exposed represent Management’s best estimates. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates. Currency risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the Fund’s securities are denominated in U.S. dollars. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in the Canadian dollar exchange rate, with all other variables held constant.

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Carnegie International Equity Fund (the “Fund”) is to achieve long-term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in the equities of large-cap international companies located outside of North America. The Fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Carnegie Asset Management, favours a bottom-up management approach based on securities selection and long-term investment. The Fund has a blended value/growth management style. Preference is given to companies with strong pricing power that take advantage of evolving global economic trends. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are made up of international equities. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to stock market risk, currency risk (between Canadian dollar and foreign currencies), sovereign risk as well as risks related to the use of derivative instruments. It does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to credit risk. Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Investments held by the Fund are traded on an active market. Equity securities are listed on major stock markets. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative instruments. Interest rate risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds no fixed income securities. Consequently, the Fund is not exposed to the risk of a change in interest rates.

Price risk The Fund trades international equity securities and money market securities which must meet the requirements of the investment policy. The Fund invests between 80% and 100% in international equities and up to a maximum of 20% in money market securities. The Fund’s assets must be invested in at least five sectors within the MSCI EAFE Index. No more than 30% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in securities of companies in the same sector. Capitalization of target companies must be greater than $1 billion without falling below the company with the smallest capitalization in the MSCI EAFE Index. Exposure to emerging economies is limited to 30% of the Fund’s assets. The percentage of securities from a single issuer is limited to 10% of the Fund’s assets. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in benchmark, with all other variables held constant.

ASTRA CALAMOS GLOBAL EQUITY FUND

OTHER INFORMATION Years ended December 31 (in thousands of dollars)

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA Calamos Global Equity Fund (the “Fund”) is to achieve long-term capital growth. Investment strategy The Fund is invested mainly in the equities and convertible bonds of large-cap global companies located outside of Canada. The Fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, Calamos Investments, favours a top-down analysis by putting emphasis on investments themes that will support growth for decades to come. A fundamental analysis of companies is carried out in industries where interesting themes have been identified. Securities are selected by analyzing both alternatives: investing in convertible securities or equity. Sector deviations are the result of the bottom-up approach to security selection. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are mainly made up of international equities and convertible bonds of global companies. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed mainly to credit risk, market risk including interest rate risk, currency risk (between Canadian dollar and foreign currencies), sovereign risk and risks associated with the use of derivatives. It does not use financial leverage or derivative products for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk The Fund’s main credit concentration risk arises from fixed income securities. All transactions on traded securities are settled or paid on delivery through certified brokers. Securities sold are not delivered until the broker has received payment. Payment for securities purchased is not made until the securities are received by the broker. The transaction is cancelled if one of the parties does not fulfil its obligations. As at December 31, the allocations of fixed income securities in the portfolio by credit rating are as follows:

Credit Rating* 2013 (%)

2012 (%)

Governments, municipals and subsidized - 20.67 Companies rated AAA - 2.86 Companies rated AA - - Companies rated A 12.48 15.31 Companies rated BBB 12.14 19.84 Companies rated BB 10.78 6.03 Companies rated B 1.64 - Not rated 62.96 35.29

* Source: Standard & Poor’s

Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. Fixed income securities held by the Fund are traded on an active market. The Fund’s securities are listed on major stock markets. Thus, the Fund is able to liquidate its investments at an amount that approximates their fair value in order to meet its liquidity obligations. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans and no derivative instruments. Interest rate risk The following table indicates the Fund’s interest rate risk exposure, as at December 31, by presenting the assets and liabilities at fair value by contract maturity dates.

Nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments Fund objective The objective of the ASTRA CoreCommodity Management Commodity Fund (the “Fund”) is to generate capital growth while offering a hedge against inflation. Investment strategy The Fund invests mainly in commodity futures contracts and forward contracts traded on the LME (London Metals Exchange), and may also invest in non-Canadian currency futures and options contracts. The cash portion is invested mainly in Canadian money market securities issued by governments and companies. The fund may hold units of underlying funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities. The investment strategy of the external manager, CoreCommodity Management, favours different strategies to surpass the performance of the Thomson Reuters/ CoreCommodity CRB Index. Fund assets are invested in some 20 commodities grouped into five main sectors: energy, precious metals, base/industrial metals, agriculture and livestock. As at December, 2013 and 2012, the Fund’s assets are made up of money market securities and derivatives. Risk exposure The Fund is exposed to market risk, interest rate risk, currency risk (Canadian and U.S. dollar) and risks associated with the use of derivatives. It does not use financial leverage or derivative products (other than futures contracts, forward contracts and options described above) for speculative purposes. Please refer to notes 5 and 6 for details related to financial instrument risks. Credit risk As at December 31, 2013, the Fund holds money market securities and derivatives. Consequently, it is exposed to credit risk. The money market securities have R-1 High credit rating according to DBRS credit rating agency. All transactions on traded securities are settled or paid on delivery through certified brokers. Securities sold are not delivered until the broker has received payment. Payment for securities purchased is not made until the securities are received by the broker. The transaction is cancelled if one of the parties does not fulfil its obligations. Liquidity risk The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. The Fund maintains sufficient cash and money market securities to maintain an adequate liquidity level. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans. Interest risk rate The Fund is exposed to interest rate risk because it contains interest-bearing fixed-income investments. However, since it contains investments with very short maturities, an interest rate variation of 1% has negligible impact on the Fund.

Price risk The Fund makes transactions in money market securities which must have a minimum rating of R-1 (low) or the equivalent based on the rating of two recognized rating agencies (DBRS, Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s or Fitch). The percentage of assets attributed to the Fund's five major sector exposures must be similar to the weighting of these sectors in the Thomson Reuters/CoreCommodity CRB Index, but it may differ. The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in the benchmark, with all other variables held constant.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Presentation of financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which include estimates and assumptions made by the Company that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses for the reporting years. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Changes in future accounting standards

Future accounting standards - International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

The Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) has decided to wait before the mandatory application of IFRS by investment companies and segregated funds offered by life insurers to January 1, 2014. The purpose for postponing the mandatory implementation date of the IFRS is to help investment companies and segregated funds offered by Canadian life insurers avoid having to change their current accounting treatment for controlled investees while waiting for the standards for investment companies to be completed. In January 2013, the Accounting Standards Board incorporated into Part 1 of the CPA Canada Handbook – Accounting, the amendments made to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”, to IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities” and to IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements” on the new requirements regarding investment entities. These requirements involve having investment companies and segregated funds offered by life insurers account for investments in controlled investees at fair value through profit or loss. The proposed accounting treatment is in compliance with the current Fund accounting policies. The Funds will adopt the IFRS for the annual financial statements starting January 1, 2014.

Investment valuation

The investments held by the Funds are recorded at fair value, which is determined as follows:

Bonds and money market securities Bonds and money market securities are valued in accordance with the bid price obtained from independent and recognized valuation service providers.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

Equities and Exchange Traded Funds Equities and Exchange Traded Funds traded on a recognized stock market are valued in accordance with the bid price recorded on the day of valuation by the stock market where the equities are traded.

Investment fund units Underlying investment fund units are valued at their net asset value per unit established by the manager of the underlying fund on the day of valuation.

Derivative products Futures contracts are valued at the bid price on valuation date by the stock exchange where these contracts are traded. Forward contracts are valued according at the bid price obtained from recognized independent valuation service providers.

If a security is not actively traded and the bid price or net asset value cannot be reliably obtained, the fair market value is established using a valuation method that uses observable market data wherever possible.

Fair value of financial instruments

The valuation of a financial instrument’s fair value recorded in net assets must be presented in accordance with a hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used to determine the fair market value. This hierarchy is comprised of three levels: Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices on active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 - Valuation based on inputs that are observable on the market for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly Level 3 - Valuation for inputs that are based on unobservable market data for assets or liabilities. A financial instrument’s classification within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value valuation. A change in the fair value valuation method could result in a transfer between levels. The method used to determine the fair value of financial instruments is not an indication of the level of risk associated with the investment.

Bonds, money market securities and forward contracts are generally classified as Level 2 because the fair value used equals the price valued by external valuation service providers using observable market data.

Equities, exchange traded Funds and futures contracts are generally classified as Level 1 because the fair value equals the price established by the recognized stock exchange where the security is actively traded.

Units of investment funds are generally classified as Level 1 when the daily net asset value per unit reflects an active market and when redemption of units is available on request. Units of investment funds are generally classified as Level 2 when redemption of units is not available on a daily basis.

Investment transactions and income recognition

Investment transactions are accounted on trade date basis and the cost of investments is calculated based on average cost method. Investment income is recorded on an accrual basis.

The interest income is accrued as earned and the dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Distribution income and net realized gains distributed by underlying fund are recorded upon distribution and allocated as established by the underlying fund manager. Income distributed by the underlying fund may include interests and dividends.

Management fee distributions represent amounts received from the underlying fund administrator in compensation for the management expense ratio included in the cost of underlying fund units. These distributions are calculated and recorded daily and monthly.

Realized gains and losses on sale of investments as well as the unrealized appreciation or depreciation in value of investments are calculated using the average cost of investments and, where applicable, exclude transaction costs which are recorded directly to operations.

Gains or losses realized from the liquidation of derivatives as a hedge are included under “Net realized gain (loss) on sale of investments” in the statement of operations. Gains or losses realized from the liquidation of derivatives for income are included under “Derivative products” in the statement of operations.

Derivative products

As part of their investment policy, the securities Funds may use standard futures or forward contracts as a hedge or for other purposes. The fair value of a future contract represents the gain or loss from its sale on valuation day. When the derivative instruments are used for hedging, the fair value is recorded within its securities in the portfolio. When the derivatives are used for income, the fair value is recorded under “Fair value of derivatives products” in the statement of net assets. Derivatives with a positive fair value are presented under assets while those with a negative fair value are presented under liabilities in the statement of net assets.

Other assets and liabilities

Other assets and liabilities are accounted at cost. Receivables include accrued investment income and amounts receivable from brokers. Accounts payable include amounts payable to brokers and payable performance fee, where applicable. Their carrying value approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturities.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

Foreign currency conversion

Some investments and other assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currencies. They are converted into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on each valuation day. Purchases and sales of investments, income and expenses are converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Exchange gains or losses upon sale of investments are recorded under “Net realized gain (loss) on sale of investments”. Unrealized exchange gains and losses are recorded under “Net unrealized gain (loss) on investments”.

Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per unit

Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per unit is obtained by dividing the increase (decrease) in net assets from operations by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the year.

Management expense ratio

Management expense ratio, expressed as an annualized percentage, is calculated by dividing the total expenses by the average net assets for the year.

Reconciliation of net assets to net asset value

Reconciliation of net assets to the net asset value of the Funds represents the difference between net assets based on bid prices and net asset value based on closing prices, calculated on every valuation day.

3. UNITHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The net assets of each Fund are divided into units of equal value and represents unitholders’ equity. The units of Funds have no par value and may be issued in an unlimited number. The price of a Fund unit equals its net asset value per unit, before issuance and redemption of units. Calculation of transactional net asset value is carried out by dividing the Fund’s net asset value by the number of units outstanding, then units are issued and redeemed with this net asset value per unit. The net asset value per unit is calculated on each valuation day, at the Funds’ manager’s office, based on day-end values in Quebec City.

4. MANAGEMENT AND OTHER FEES

In return for management fees, the Company offers investment and management consulting services. The Company also collects administrative fees from the Funds and takes charge of audit and legal fees, insurance costs, record-keeping expenses, bank charges, custodian and deposit fees, unitholder-related service expenses, financial report expenses, fund accounting and valuation expenses, sales taxes and expenses related to the Information Folder and unitholder communications as well as any other costs incurred by the Funds.

Certain funds may be required to pay fees related to the Fund‘s performance. This is the case of the ASTRA CoreCommodity Management Commodity Fund which is subject to performance fees based on its returns. These fees correspond to 25% of the cumulative performance over that of the index on the futures contract portion. When the additional cumulative performance is lower than the index, the performance fees are reduced by 25% of the difference between the cumulative performance and the index down to a minimum of zero for the current year. As at December 31, 2013, the balance of performance-related fees payable is $123 (2012 - $68) for class D, $20 (2012 - $26) for class E and $19 (2012 - $14) for class F.

5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK

In the normal course of business, the Funds are exposed to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk including interest rate risk, price risk and currency risk. The Funds are comprised of investments that may fluctuate on a daily basis as a result of changes in market and economic conditions, interest rates and company information, particularly when it affects the securities making up the Funds or the underlying funds.

The Funds’ exposure to risk depends on the investment strategies and the types of investments held in the portfolios. The results of risk sensitivity analyses conducted represent management’s best estimates. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates.

A description of financial risks to which the Fund is exposed is presented in the other documents accompanying the financial statements of each Fund.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge its obligations. Fixed income investments and derivative products are subject to credit risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Funds may be unable to meet their obligations in a timely fashion as a result of its inability to liquidate their assets. The Funds are exposed to this risk because of daily redemptions of units.

5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK (Cont’d)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates.

The Funds are exposed to interest rate risk when they hold interest-bearing financial instruments. When the fund holds interest-bearing financial instruments, it is exposed to the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations have very little impact on cash and money market securities.

Price risk

Price risk is the risk of fluctuation in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the financial instrument or its issuer, or by factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. All securities investments may present a risk of potential financial loss.

Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument, denominated in a currency other than the Canadian dollar, will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Funds are exposed to currency risk when they hold assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar because the value of securities denominated in foreign currencies will vary according to foreign exchange rates in effect.

6. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company offers investment and retirement products and concludes agreements with external fund managers to manage the Funds or underlying funds. Accordingly, neither the Company nor any affiliated company has any interest in a portfolio management company. The management of the assets held in the Funds is therefore outsourced and is conducted through external managers.

The Company has adopted an external fund management policy which aims to establish a rigorous process for the selection and monitoring of external managers, including compliance and risk management aspects, and to provide the necessary coaching related to the decision-making process for management mandates awarded to external managers.

The policy sets forth the responsibilities of all stakeholders involved in the management of the Funds as well as the decision-making process with respect to the setting up and monitoring of the Funds.

External manager selection process

The external manager selection process is used whenever a need arises to launch a new product, improve the Funds’ offering, or replace an existing external manager. The external fund management policy includes evaluation criteria for selecting an external manager, the steps in the selection process and sets forth required approval levels.

Performance evaluation of external managers

The Company regularly meets with external managers and monitors the performance of each manager to respond quickly to any event likely to have an impact on the performance of the Funds.

Monthly and quarterly reviews are conducted. The performance of each external manager is compared with a benchmark. Sector allocation, key holdings and portfolio volatility of the Funds and underlying funds are reviewed. An update of the qualitative review of each external manager is also conducted periodically to detect changes within the organization, as well as changes in management style and investment policy.

The external fund management policy also provides parameters which may ultimately lead to reconsideration of an external manager’s mandate.

External management of the Funds

The Company has delegated the management of the risks of the Funds to an external manager of the underlying fund.

The external fund management policy provides for the monitoring and performance evaluation of the managers of the underlying funds. Accordingly, the periodic reviews include a performance review and qualitative monitoring of each of the external managers.

7. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Funds have no externally imposed regulatory capital requirements on subscriptions or redemptions. Capital variations are shown on the statement of changes in net assets of each Fund. Capital is managed in accordance with the investment objectives of the Funds, which include liquidity management to meet redemption obligations.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Funds qualify as segregated fund trusts under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the Taxation Act (Quebec). As a result, net investment income from the Funds and realized gains and losses, as applicable, are attributed to unitholders at the end of the year. Consequently, the Funds are not subject to income taxes.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Funds (the “Funds”), which comprise the statements of net assets and investment portfolio as at December 31, 2013 and the statements of operations and changes in net assets for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statements

SSQ, Life Insurance Company Inc. (the “Manager of the Funds”) is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as the Manager of the Funds determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as at December 31, 2013 and the results of their operations and their changes in net assets for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

1. THE FUND

The ASTRA Sigma Alpha Global Macro Fund (hereinafter the “Fund”) is a segregated fund constituted under the Act respecting insurance (Quebec) and administrated by SSQ, Life Insurance Company Inc. (hereinafter the “Company”). The net assets of the Fund are owned by the Company and are accounted within its other assets. The Fund is not considered a separate legal entity. The Fund began its activities on September 30, 2010.

The financial information presented in these financial statements and in the notes to financial statements is related to the data as at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Presentation of financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which include estimates and assumptions made by the Company that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Changes in accounting standards

Future accounting standards - International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

The Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) has decided to wait before the mandatory application of IFRS by investment companies and segregated funds offered by life insurers to January 1, 2014. The purpose for postponing the mandatory implementation date of the IFRS is to help investment companies and segregated funds offered by Canadian life insurers avoid having to change their current accounting treatment for controlled investees while waiting for the standards for investment companies to be completed. In January 2013, the Accounting Standards Board incorporated into Part 1 of the CPA Canada Handbook – Accounting, the amendments made to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”, to IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities” and to IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements” on the new requirements regarding investment entities. These requirements involve having investment companies and segregated funds offered by life insurer’s account for investments in controlled investees at fair value through profit or loss. The proposed accounting treatment is in compliance with the current Fund accounting policies. The Fund will adopt the IFRS for the annual financial statements starting January 1, 2014.

Investment valuation

The investments held by the Fund are recorded at fair value, which is determined as follows:

Money market securities Money market securities are valued in accordance with the bid price obtained from independent and recognized valuation service providers.

Derivative products Futures contracts are valued at the bid price on valuation date by the stock exchange where these contracts are traded.

Fair value of financial instruments

The valuation of a financial instrument’s fair value recorded in net assets must be presented in accordance with a hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used to determine the fair market value. This hierarchy is comprised three levels:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices on active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 - Valuation based on inputs that are observable on the market for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly Level 3 - Valuation for inputs that are based on unobservable market data for assets or liabilities. A financial instrument’s classification within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value valuation. A change in the fair value valuation method could result in a transfer between levels. The method used to determine the fair value of financial instruments is not an indication of the level of risk associated with the investment.

Money market securities are generally classified as Level 2 because the fair value used equals the price valued by external valuation service providers using observable market data.

Futures contracts are generally classified as Level 1 because the fair value equals the price established by the recognized stock exchange where the security is actively traded.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

Investment transactions and income recognition

Investment transactions are accounted on trade date and the cost of investments is calculated based on average cost method. Investment income is recorded on an accrual basis.

Interest income is accrued as it is earned.

Realized gains and losses on sale of investments as well as the unrealized appreciation or depreciation in value of investment are calculated using the average cost of investments, excluding transaction costs which are recorded directly to operations.

Gains or losses realized from the liquidation of derivatives are included under “Derivative products” in the statement of operations.

Derivative products

As part of the investment policy, the Fund is mainly invested in futures contracts for income. The fair value of a future contract represents the gain or loss from its sale on valuation day and is reported under “Fair value of derivatives products” in the statement of net assets. Derivatives with a positive fair value are presented under assets while those with a negative fair value are presented under liabilities in the statement of net assets.

Other assets and liabilities

Other assets and liabilities are accounted at cost. Receivables include accrued investment income and amounts receivable from brokers. Accounts payable include amounts payable to brokers and payable performance fee. Their carrying value approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturities.

Foreign currency conversion

Some investments and other assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currencies. These are converted into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on each valuation day. Purchases and sales of investments, income and expenses are converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Exchange gains or losses upon sale of investments are recorded under “Net realized gain (loss) on sale of investments”. Unrealized exchange gains and losses are recorded under “Net unrealized gain (loss) on investments”.

Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per unit

Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per unit is obtained by dividing the increase (decrease) in net assets from operations by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the year.

Management expense ratio

Management expense ratio, expressed as an annualized percentage, is calculated by dividing the total expenses by the average net assets for the year.

Reconciliation of net assets to net asset value

Reconciliation of net assets to the net asset value of the Funds represents the difference between net assets based on bid prices and net asset value based on closing prices, calculated on every valuation day.

3. UNITHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The net assets of the Fund are divided into units of equal value and represent the unitholders’ equity. The units of the Fund have no par value and may be issued in an unlimited number. The price of the Fund unit equals its net asset value per unit, before issuance and redemption of units. Calculation of transactional net asset value is carried out by dividing the Fund’s net asset by the number of units outstanding, then units are issued and redeemed with this net asset value per unit. The net asset value per unit is calculated on each valuation day, at the Fund’s manager’s office, based on day-end values in Quebec City.

4. MANAGEMENT AND OTHER FEES

In return for management fees, the Company offers investment and management consulting services. The Company also collects administrative fees from the Fund and takes charge of audit and legal fees, insurance costs, record-keeping expenses, bank charges, custodian and deposit fees, unitholder-related service expenses, financial report expenses, fund accounting and valuation expenses, sales taxes and expenses related to the information folder and unitholder communications as well as any other costs incurred by the Fund.

The Fund is also subject to performance fees based on its yield. This fee corresponds to 20% on returns in excess of 5%. As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no payable performance fees.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK

In the normal course of business, the Fund is exposed to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk including interest rate risk, price risk and currency risk. The Fund is comprised of investments that may fluctuate on a daily basis as a result of changes in market and economic conditions, interest rates and company information, particularly when it affects the securities making up the Fund.

The Fund’s exposure to risk depends on the investment strategy and the types of investments held in the portfolio. The result of the sensibility analysis to which the Fund is exposed represent Management’s best estimate. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge its obligations. Fixed income investments are subject to credit risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund may be unable to meet its obligations in a timely fashion as a result of its inability to liquidate its assets. The Fund is exposed to this risk because of daily redemptions of units.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK (Cont’d)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates.

The Fund is exposed to interest rate risk when it holds interest-bearing financial instruments. When the fund holds interest-bearing financial instruments, it is exposed to the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations have very little impact in cash and money market securities.

Price risk

Price risk is the risk of fluctuation in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the financial instrument or its issuer, or by factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded on the market. All securities investments may present a risk of potential financial loss.

Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument, denominated in a currency other than the Canadian dollar, will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Fund is exposed to currency risk when it hold assets or liabilities denominated in a currency other than the Canadian dollar, because the value of securities denominated in foreign currencies will vary according to foreign exchange rates in effect.

7. FINANCIAL RISK EXPOSURE

Fund objective

The fundamental investment objective of this Fund is to obtain a return on 91-day treasury bills while controlling the volatility significantly below that of the markets.

The Fund is mainly invested in futures contracts in the following worldwide indices (including emerging markets), bonds, currencies and commodities. It may also be invested in fixed income Canadian securities and money market securities. The Fund may hold units of funds corresponding to the above-mentioned securities.

The investment approach of the external manager, Sigma Alpha Capital, is to implement a tactical and strategic asset allocation strategy for the four main asset classes: stock index, bonds, currencies and commodities. The investment process is based on a close analysis of economic cycles around the world combined with rigorous risk management parameters.

Credit risk As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund holds money market securities and derivatives. Consequently, the Fund is exposed to credit risk. The money market securities have R-1 High credit rating according to the DBRS credit rating agency. All transactions on traded securities are settled or paid on delivery through certified brokers. Securities sold are not delivered until the broker has received payment. Payment for securities purchased is not made until the securities are received by the broker. The transaction is cancelled if one of the parties does not fulfil its obligations. Liquidity risk

The Fund is exposed to liquidity risk on daily redemptions of units. The Fund maintains sufficient cash and money market securities to maintain an adequate liquidity level.

As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Fund has no securities loans.

Interest rate risk

The Fund is exposed to interest rate risk because it contains interest-bearing fixed-income investments. However, since it contains investments with very short maturities, an interest rate variation of 1% has negligible impact on the Fund.

Price risk

The Fund’s most significant exposure to price risk arises from its investment in standardized futures contracts. As at December 31, 2013, had the prices on the respective stock exchanges for these securities increased or decreased by 5%, with all other variables held constant, net assets would have increased or decreased by approximately $464 (2012 - $2,047). The results of sensitivity analysis conducted with respect to the price risk represent the Management’s best estimates. In practice, the actual trading results may differ and the difference could be significant.

The following table presents the impact on the net assets of the Fund, as at December 31, of a potential change in the Canadian dollar exchange rate, with all other variables held constant.

The results of sensitivity analysis conducted with respect to the currency risk represent the Management’s best estimates. Actual results may vary significantly from these estimates.

8. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company offers investment and retirement products and concludes agreements with external fund managers to manage the Fund. Accordingly, neither the Company nor any affiliated company has any interest in a portfolio management company. The Fund's asset management is outsourced and managed by an external investment manager, Sigma Alpha Capital.

The Company has adopted an external fund management policy which aims to establish a rigorous process for the selection and monitoring of external managers, including compliance and risk management aspects, and to provide the necessary coaching related to the decision-making process for management mandates awarded to external managers.

The policy sets forth the responsibilities of all stakeholders involved in the management of the Funds as well as the decision-making process with respect to the setting up and monitoring of the Funds.

External manager selection process

The external manager selection process is used whenever a need arises to launch a new product, improve the Funds’ offering, or replace an existing external manager. The external fund management policy includes evaluation criteria for selecting an external manager, the steps in the selection process and sets forth required approval levels.

Performance evaluation of external managers

The Company regularly meets with external managers and monitors the performance of each manager to respond quickly to any event likely to have an impact on the performance of the Funds.

Monthly and quarterly reviews are conducted. The performance of each external manager is compared with a benchmark. Sector allocation, key holdings and portfolio volatility of the Funds and underlying funds are reviewed. An update of the qualitative review of each external manager is also conducted periodically to detect changes within the organization, as well as changes in management style and investment policy.

The external fund management policy also provides parameters which may ultimately lead to reconsideration of an external manager’s mandate.

9. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Fund has no externally imposed regulatory capital requirements on subscriptions or redemptions. Capital variations are shown on the statement of changes in net assets of the Fund. Capital is managed in accordance with the investment objectives of the Fund, which include liquidity management to meet redemption obligations.

10. INCOME TAXES

The Fund qualifies as a segregated fund trusts under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the Taxation Act (Quebec). As a result, net investment income from the Fund and realized gains and losses, as applicable, are attributed to unitholders at the end of the year. Consequently, the Fund is not subject to income taxes.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To Unitholders of ASTRA Sigma Alpha Global Macro Fund,

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ASTRA SIGMA ALPHA GLOBAL MACRO FUND, which comprise the statement of the net assets and investment portfolio as at December 31, 2013, and the statements of operations and changes in net assets for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Fund preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and holdings of ASTRA Sigma Alpha Global Macro Fund as at December 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and its change in net assets for the year then ended, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.
